BTW I have played every pokemon generation and I have never found a legitimate wild shiny pokemon unless it is scripted to be shiny like Gyarados. Never bread one either even with the shiny boosting items from Gen 6

i imagine breeding is on the list of upcoming content. doubt they added gender for the fun of it.
shinies are already in the code, so those are likely coming. although, i saw some of the sprites for shinies and htey look like shit so not excited for that.
legendaries have got to be coming soon as well. nobody likes unfilled pokedex entries that are impossible to get. =D

Yeah I agree. Hopefully they only allow 1 legendary per gym and 1 legendary on the 6 pokemon battle team as a balancing means
|
One actually good suggestion I saw on Pokemon Go's facebook page was to only allow one of each kind of pokemon in gyms. I think it would make gym battles more interesting

What? You mean having 10 Mewtwos is bad game design???

I'd like it if the first (or top) pokemon put into a gym determined the types the gym allowed. Like if someone puts in a fire pokemon it would prevent water or grass pokemon from being added and then give bonuses to additional fire types added (like boosted stats). Some mechanic like that to encourage gyms to specialize in certain types.
Plus something like a boost based on type could mean that people who say start a fire based gym could keep top rungs with Pokemon that aren't Dragonite (or whoever the top CP poke available happens to be) and a wider range of pokemon would be good enough for 'top spots'.

That's a cool idea. But what happens when the first pokemon put in is Dual type? If Charizard is in the gym first does that mean any flying or fire type can go in or only fire/flying types can go in? Let's say the first pokemon is Arcanine. Obviously means a fire gym. Can I put Charizard in it?

Never found one through a standard play through unless it was by using seed generation for them.

I've found 3, 2 of them were zubats.
It took me until Y until I caught a pokemon with Pokerus.

It took me until Y until I caught a pokemon with Pokerus. There is a reasonable chance I caught a pokemon with that before they started adding that to the pokemon info screen. I've never had nurse joy say that my pokemon have it before but I usually just used 8-10 different ones in a playthrough
|
Since using the GTS in Sun, pretty much all my pokemon have Pokerus. But apparently that's a good thing so I don't mind. I also got a shiny lapras through the GTS, not sure if I traded with a hacker or if he was just unaware.
My pogo luck is pretty dire at times. Swiped 4 evolution items so far and 3 of them are sun stones. Hatched 5 of the (previously) 10k egg babies and all 5 were Elekids. Ahhh RNG..
|
Took down my first lvl 10 all blissy gym today (cp ranging 2100-3200) had some very close calls on timer due to dodging too much early on to save hp. Surprisingly probably the most fun ive had battling a gym in months but i think im pretty much done with the game til next event or big changes aside from hitting my daily spins hoping for 2x sun stones so i can finish my dex.

I've found 1 normally if I remember rightly, but in Platinum one of the Poke apps let you catch shiny pokemon fairly consistently I forget what u had to do exactly but u activate the app in a grass area and have to chain catch like 20 pokemon or something and the next one would be shiny.

there have been methods of "chaining" shinies in every generation since then
|
Today the RNG gods were kind. Hatched a Tyrogue for the first time. It had HP as highest stat tied with defense, so 50/50 chance of hitmontop/hitmonchan. Got the Hitmontop
|
Visited Cali over a long weekend and man, playing PoGo over there is a different experience. If I had managed to run to the Hitmonchan in time I would have nearly completed my Gen 1 dex (as regionally possible) over 5 days lol. Tons of Gen 2 I hadn't seen yet either.
Also all the gyms are level 10 2800+ Blissey, Snorlax, Dragonite, Gyrados so that's a positive for where I am. I managed to get one gym while there and just put in my 1200 Dunsparce for the lawlz.
|
Have there been any more hints at when the hypothetical double xp event might begin? Got a bunch of new evolves lined up and hoping to do them Saturday on my 7 day spin and catch.
|
In midtown Manhattan right now nearly every gym is all 3100+ Dragonites with the occasional Rhydon or Gyrados thrown in for giggles
